Terrible trunk lock!

Terrible electric trunk lock. Easy installation but it doesn't even lock or open the tailgate. The drive must have more power to move the locking mechanism. I would not recommend this product. Find a reputable car stereo shop to order one for you when you need it. Don't waste money on it!

Rework required for 2006 Tundra Double Cab

It was never possible to get the actuator to fully open the locking mechanism. I worked with Pop & Lock Tech Service. They were very supportive and provided 3 additional kits which also never worked. A considerable amount of work for installation and removal. I believe the mechanism lacks the necessary levers to lock/unlock the 2006 Tundra's tailgates.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Minor issues

REMOVE FEATHER! Then it works.

So I read all the other reviews that said it doesn't have enough power to actually move the locking mechanism, but I bought it anyway to see if I could get it working could. I've found that removing the small retaining springs on the slide mechanism works great! If you leave the springs on, I've found that they don't have enough force to actually lock the tailgate. I don't know why the manufacturer put these springs in as they don't really do much other than not be that loud. I gave 4 stars…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Short instructions
